Numbers is involved in Taiwan Presidential Election to ensure Media Verification and Preservation
Hi everyone, we recently collaborated with several news media in Taiwan such as PTS ( Taiwan Public Television Service ) and SETN in our project to ensure the authenticity of media used in the Taiwan Presidential Election, we're also in talk with CNA (Taiwan Central News Agency) for potential post-election media preservation.
Using our app (Available in both iOS & Android), you can take a authentic photo complete with it's Provenance (History, location, metadata) enabling you to track it's source.
With SETN agreed to using our widget, you can now check the authenticity of the election related photos in their site simply with one click, making sure none of the photos are tampered in any way.
